Chapter 1 Game Beta
"It's only half a day before the public beta of the Genesis game "The Era of Words", and the moment that countless citizens are waiting for is coming..."
In a hall, an LCD TV was hung on the white walls, with news playing on it, and a sweet-looking female anchor was introducing a game.
"Is this "Text Era" really so fun? It is said that 200 million people have purchased virtual helmets." On the sofa, a thin boy wearing glasses asked Shan Luo on the side.
"I don't know, it should be very good. The promotion of this game is so popular all over the world, and I guess it won't disappoint us." Shan Luo shrugged and said. Shan Luo is an ordinary sophomore with a pretty face and a normal family background. At this time, he was staying in the dormitory with his roommate waiting for the public beta of "The Era of Words".
"I hope we won't disappoint. It is said that the NPC inside is very sexy." The thin guy with glasses said with anticipation. He was one of the three roommates alone, named Zhao Yuan, and a black-bellied guy.
"Can you be so swaying, you're so lively and vivid," Shan Luo said with a blank look on Zhao Yuan. Zhao Yuan was not angry about this. He rubbed his hands with a slutty smile.
"bite"
At this time, a voice came from outside the hall, and soon two young men walked in. It was the other two roommates Xu Ze and Tian Qu who were single.
Xu Ze is tall and has a sunny appearance. He is very popular with girls. He is also a bit fickle and often goes out to date girls, which makes Zhao Yuan envious.
Tian Qu is a simple-looking boy. He is not tall, but his body is very strong, and his two chest muscles are so full of T-shirts. He is the boss of the single-loving dormitory. He is very kind-hearted and often helps them.
"Boss, you are back." Zhao Yuan greeted Tian Qu and the others, and Shanluo also looked at them with a smile.
"Haha, yes, come on, we bring you two." Tian Qu smiled and lifted the white pocket in his hand.
"Wow, boss, it's so good. I love you so much!" Zhao Yuan shouted exaggeratedly and then stood up and ran towards Tian Qu. Seeing this, Shanluo also got up and walked towards them.
"I said, Zhao Weishu, can you not exaggerate like this!" Xu Ze glanced at Zhao Yuan with contempt and said.
"Hehe, Xu Menqing, I like this." Zhao Yuan took the pocket in Tian Qu's hand and said. Xu Menqing was a name he gave Xu Ze, and used Ximen Qing's name to tease him. From then on, the name Xu Menqing has been placed on his head.
"Xu Menqing, which girl did you have appointments today?" Shan Luo raised his eyebrows to Xu Ze and asked. Upon hearing this, Xu Ze smiled and looked very proud.
"Of course it's a beauty, but I won't tell you who it is. You don't know each other anyway." Xu Ze said proudly, which made Zhao Yuan scream again.
"You're going to have sex with girls again, so jealous!" Zhao Yuan shouted while opening his pocket. Obviously he was joking, and his main focus was on eating.
"That's right, you're going to be jealous." Xu Ze shook his head and said, and after that, he walked towards the sofa.
Shanluo turned around and took Tian Qu's pocket with a smile and said, "Thank you, boss."
"What a big deal, what are you thanks for? You can eat first." Tian Qu waved his hand and said, then turned around and walked towards the sofa.
Shanluo opened his pocket and found that it was his favorite beef noodles. He immediately took them in his hand and started eating them happily.
"The Era of Words will officially start public beta at 8:00 pm. At present, we still don't know what kind of game it is. What kind of game is this? In this regard, we interviewed veteran players..."
The sweet voice of the female anchor came from the LCD TV, which also attracted Xu Ze and Tian Qu's attention.
"Hey, it's this game again. There are advertisements for this game everywhere on the street. Is it really that fun?" Xu Ze asked curiously. The only one in the dormitory was prepared to play with Shan Luo and Zhao Yuan, while Tian Qu and Xu Ze were not interested.
"I don't know, I will know if it's fun after the public beta in the evening." Shan Luo came to the sofa with beef noodles and sat down and said, and Zhao Yuan also sat next to him.
"Hehe, such a popular game, we must play it as soon as possible to seize the opportunity." Zhao Yuan said while eating noodles, which made Tian Qu blanch him.
"You know the game all day long, and this time you're going to be single, don't ruin him." Tian Qu shook his head. He was honest and honest and never attracted to the game. In his opinion, this was a waste of time.
"How could that happen?" Zhao Yuan laughed, Shan Luo was also helpless. If Zhao Yuan hadn't been pestering him and said that "The Era of Words" was very fun, he wouldn't have played it.
"After the public beta, you will know how crazy the world will be!" Zhao Yuan said confidently, and then gave him a blank look and continued to bury his head in eating beef noodles. Xu Ze and Tian Qu also seemed a little helpless. This guy is really a game crazy!
...
At 7:50 pm, Shanluo returned to his bedroom. It is now 2045 AD. The technology level of the earth is far beyond the past. The quality of life of citizens has improved a lot. For college students like Shanluo, they are all suites with all kinds of equipment. Of course, many citizens still have poor living conditions. After all, the world cannot be absolutely fair.
Shanluo came to the bed and connected the blue helmet on the table next to it to the socket. This is the virtual helmet of "Wen Age". The helmet is printed with a big word "Wen". After putting it on, the player will enter the game world. Nowadays, virtual games are connected through virtual helmets, and there are more advanced nutrition warehouses. Shanluo can't afford the cost of the nutrition warehouse, so they can only use virtual helmets.
The price of a virtual helmet is 3,000 yuan, which is a one-month living expenses. If Zhao Yuan hadn't always guaranteed that this game could make money, he wouldn't have been willing to buy it. You should know that the average income of citizens in China is only 5,000 yuan. For those living at the bottom of society, 3,000 yuan is also a considerable wealth.
He connected the virtual helmet, put it on and then lay on the bed. He closed his eyes and pointed the red button on the right side of the helmet with his hands. He felt his head sink. The next moment when he opened his eyes again, the ceiling was no longer in front of him.
It was just a dark space, and there was light only three meters away around Shanluo. Shanluo was standing in the middle of this space, and there was nothing except a light screen in front of him.
"It's two minutes left!" Shanluo saw the numbers on the light screen talking to himself. The countdown on the light screen was getting bored. The network connection on the light screen was turned on. He wanted to see the online players' discussion on "Text Era".
Clicking into the forum of "The Era of Words", a large number of comments began to refresh the light screen, and I was dazzled by the sight alone.
"Haha, there will be a public beta in less than two minutes, I can't wait!"
"Oh, my big knife is already thirsty!"
"Haha, sons, wait for me to conquer you!"
"The upstairs are so terrible!"
“+1”
“+2”
...
Seeing these players' words, I couldn't help but look forward to it. Will this "Text Era" really make the world crazy like the promotional advertisement?
While waiting for a single place, time flies quickly, and it will be ten seconds soon!
10!
9!
...
3!
2!
1! The public beta of "The Era of Words" begins!
"boom!"
Shanluo only felt the dark space around him suddenly shattering, and the next moment a blue sky appeared under his feet, and he began to fall down.
"Ahhhhh!!! Cao! Don't play like this!"
Shan Luo shouted in the air, and the strong wind made his mouth tremble. It was at least tens of thousands of meters in height. Anyway, Shan Luo couldn't see the ground.
Still single, no matter how he abused the game producer, he was still falling down. Soon he found that he was not suffocating or other uncomfortable situations occurred. It seems that the game party just wanted to scare the players. I wonder if those players with heart disease would be scared to death?
Just as he was thinking about it, he finally saw the ground. A few thousand meters below was an endless forest. He felt like he was looking down at the world at a high altitude. This feeling was very wonderful, which made him look forward to this game again. At least this scene alone is something that most games cannot do.
Just as he was praising "The Era of Words", the sky suddenly darkened, and the sky that was still blue just now became a bloody sky, as if the doomsday was coming.
"Damn, what's going on?" Shanluo was also shocked by everything around him. Could it be that something was wrong with the game, right?
"town!"
A vast sound suddenly sounded in the world. Then he saw a huge word "Zhen" pressing out of the clouds in the distance from the sky. The word "Zhen" is a thousand feet wide, pressing towards the forest on the ground like Mount Tai, which made him dumbfounded.
"The Era of Words can actually make such a picture! It's so popular! It's absolutely popular. No wonder the world will be boiling after the public beta. This picture alone will kill all virtual games in seconds!" Shan Luo said in shock. Although he is still falling, his mind has been attracted by the huge word "town" in front of him.
"war!"
Just as Shanluo sighed, another vast sound sounded. The sound was full of domineeringness, which was more shocking than the sound just now. Then, under Shanluo's incredible expression, the word "War" floated out from the mountains and forests. This word crashed towards "Zhen", and became bigger and bigger in the air, and soon became a thousand feet in size.
Two stunning giant characters collided towards each other in the air, Shan Luo looked at the shocking scene in front of him with a dull face. This was a scene he had never seen in movies before. Is this a real world?
"boom"
The two giant words collided with each other, and a dazzling white light made Yan Luo hurriedly closed his eyes.
The next moment, when Shan Luo opened his eyes again, he found himself appearing in a small wooden house with no furniture inside, which looked very gloomy.
"Huh? Who are you!"
Shanluo soon found a short figure standing in front of him, which scared him. The light in the wooden house was very dim, and he thought it was a ghost.
"Become a writer, first choose the first word of your destiny! What is your first word?"
The short figure looked up and asked, which scared Shanluo to take a step back. This was an old man in worn animal skin, with a hunched body like a dwarf, but what scared Shanluo the most was that the old man had only one eye on his face and the other eye was shriveledly closed, and a trace of blood slid out along the cracks of his eyes, looking very scary.
